In the languages I cut my teeth on, this is a function declaration:

 function foo() {}

And this is an assignment statement with an inline function for the rhs:

 var foo = function() {};

And I'm used to semicolon terminators for assignment statements, but 
not for function declarations.

The most important question, though, is what does the language standard 
say?
